Question, and a game.

[lilmizmombassa.livejournal.com]

I was recently thinking how difficult it is for me to come up with names for one child, let alone multiple children. I can't get one name to stick for more than a month or two before deciding that it is awful and needs to be revamped, completely. This lead me to ponder how you name multiples, then. (And here's where our game ties in, eventually.) How would you name a set of twins? Would you just, automatically, use your top two girls or boys names? Is there more of an importance for twins, triplets, or quads, to have similar/different names, rather than if they had been six, three, or ten years apart? (I apologize if this seems like word vomit, I've been awake for over twenty-four hours.)

And now, your task:

In your opinion, the worst names for a b/b, g/g, and b/g set of twins? What about triplets? What about quads? (Can be similar in sound, theme, or just terrible names.)

If you gave birth to twins, triplets, or quads, what would you name them? How would you choose?

I really hate matchy names for twins. My Mom and my Aunt are Arlene and Eileen lol. As much as I love their names separately, together is a bit much!

I'd just go with the names I had picked for a boy/girl for this pregnancy:
Donald Gabriel (nn Gabe, Donald is a family name) / Samantha (still haven't decided on a middle!)

As for same sex, I'd just go down the list of my favorites:
G/G:
Samantha / Maeve (no clue on middles haha)

B/B:
Donald Gabriel / William Jestin (nn Liam, both family names)
